Voters of Roseburg's School Dis

school district reorganization act.
No Land Addition
There is no addition of land to
the district and the only major
change as far as the new law will
be concerned in Roseburg is the
addition of three members to the
previous five-man board.
The four current members of the
board seeking re-election are now
serving terms which would not

need to feel mighty blue.

Constellation
MOSCOW (AP) The Soviet
Union's Venus - bound space sta
tion zoomed ahead at 2.5 miles
per second today and Soviet sci
entists reported its equipment
was relaying back information as
planned.
Tass, the Soviet news agency,
said two playback sessions of data
from the station had been trig
gered by radio command from
earth and that a big volume of data
about space conditions was re
ceived. The 1,418-pound "automatic in
terplanetary station" was rocket
ed from an orbiting Sputdk Sun
day, the Soviets said. It is de
signed to penetrate the clouds perpetually-blanketine
Venus and re-
vearrsome of her secrets. Soviet
scientists refused to comment,
however, on speculation, that the
space ship carried cameras
aboard.
Tass said the station was 303,
600 miles from earth at noon Mon
day soaring between the constel
lations of Cetus (the Whale) and
Pisces (the Fish) in the center of
the triangle formed by the constel
lations of Beta Aries, Alpha Peg
asus and Beta Cetus.
"After a few days," Tass said,
"the automatic interplanetary sta
tion will be out of the so-called
sphere of terrestrial gravitation."
All equipment aboard was func
tioning as intended. Tass said.
During the first playback, the
temperature aboard was 68 de
grees fahrenheit. The account
said a temperature control sys
tem was designed to assure prop
er conditions for operation of
equipment on the station.

hour delay in start of the search
The Green Valley, a black-
hulled tender with a green cabin,
left a small logging camp about
9:30 a.m. Monday on a 15-mile
trip to Pender Harbor. It carried
eight men when it left in clear
and good weather.
Monday a body was discovered
floating off McRae Cove by the
Royal T. First indications were
that it had been m the water
three or four days, and officials
decided against a search at that
time.
Last night a cable lo the rescue
center from Pender Harbor indi
cated the Green Valley was over-
I due. Radio communication with
i the logging camp was broken by
i a failure in the camp's power sup
ply and the news of the boat s
disappearance was not confirmed
until an Air Force tender traveled
to the camp to check on the
Green Valley's departure.
A general marine bulletin was
issued asking all vessels to join
in the search. However, gale
warnings were up in George Strait
' and smaller vessels were expected
lo withdraw from the area.
The tender normally c a r r I s
loggers to and from camps along
the British Columbia roast.
It was not known how many
of the missing were loggers or
what was the strength of the
tender's crew. Names were with
held pending notification of next

Annexation
Election Slated
The second annexation election
within a year will be held in Rose
burg March 23, as residents of
what is being called the Keasey
Calkins area will go to the polls to
decide whether or not to join the
city.
This election, as was the one
last Fall which resulted in the
annexation of East Roseburg, is
being prompted mainly by the
need for sanitary sewers.
Area Given
The area involved lies eenerallv
from NW Garden Valley Blvd. on
tne norm to the South Umpqua
River bounding the south, begin
ning at Stewart Park on the east
and running about 8-10 of a mile
west of the Keasey Road - Calkins
Road junction on the west. The
western boundary includes the
Grove St. area.
The Roseburg City Council Mon
day night voted to allocate funds
to cover the cost of the March 23
election and to allocate funds for
an aerial survey of the area for
lulure sanitary sewer engineer
ing. Sanitary Facilities
City Manager John Warburlon
requested the election funds and
said he felt the city had received
enough verbal support frpin resi
dent of the area to warrant hold
ing the election. He pointed out
that although no petition was turn
ed in calling for annexation, as
from East Roseburg, this is not a
necessity for the instigation of the
annexation proceedings.
Warburton said the area includes
some 300 residents.
Like East Roseburg, the area is
served by septic tanks and many
of its residents are interested in
obtaining sanitary sewer facilities,
warourion pointed out.
State Arson Squad
Seeks Fire Clues
The slate arson squad, in cooper
ation with local authorities, is still
investigating the setting of four
fires in Roseburg homes recently.
So far they have nothing to report.
Roseburg City Police Detective
E. R. Woodworth said a 16-year-old
boy was apprehended last week in
the city by a sheriff's deputy in
connection with a threatening
phone call to a telephone company
employe. He was apprehended near
the telephone building immediate
ly after the call.
Admits Calls
The youth was turned over to
city police and then placed in the
custody of the juvenile department.
He admitted making the call, and
on further questioning also admit
ted making some anonymous tele
phone calls last summer. He had
been questioned about these calls
at the time, but denied making
them then.
However, said Woodworth, he has
denied making calls about the time
of the fire settings. He also has
denied any knowledge of the fires.
The officer said so far there is
nothing to connect him with these
occasions.
Juvenile Officer Julian Helleck
said the youth was released to his
parents after questioning, and that
further investigation is being made
through his otfice.

WASHINGTON (AP) The need
to do something about mounting
unemployment is more urgent
than at any rime since the great
depression of the 19H0s, House
Speaker Sam Kayburn, D-Tex.,
said after a conference with Presi
dent Kennedy today.
Rayburn added that Secretary
of Labor Arthur J. Goldberg re
ported at the conterence that be
has found the situation worse than
he had expected.
Goldberg reported lo Kennedy,
other members of the Cabinet and
Democratic congressional leaders
at an hour-long White House ses

nomic recovery. ,
Kennedy To Talk

er he got the impression today
that the administration regards
the unemployment problem as
more urgent than had been an
ticipated. Rayburn replied he didn't want
to speak for the administration,
but that in his opinion the prob
lem reflects "the most urgency
since the great depression" of 30
years ago.
The White House session was
held as Senate Democratic Leader
Mike Mansfield of Montana
pushed for fast action on the eco
nomic program Kennedy said is
aimed at "putting millions of un

chairman of the Senate Labor and
Finance committees to get hear
ings going quickly on minimum
wage and unemployment com
pensation bills.

More For Arms
LONDON (AP) The govern
ment issued a defense blueprint
today providing for increased
armaments expenditures and
warning of the rising military
might of Communist China.
The document laid before Par
liament calls for military spend
ina of 1.655.600.000 pounds $4.6:15,-
680,000 in the fiscal year begin
ning April 1.
This is more than one-quarter
of total government spending and
is 39 million pounds $109,200,000
higher than current defense
spending.
The white paper hinted that
Prime Minister Harold Macmil
lan's government is shying away
from the more expensive nuclear
and rocket arms programs to
provide enough money for con
ventional forces.
Communist China maintains
verv large armed forces and the
West cannot ignore her rising
power, the government said.
It predicted that the Soviet Un
ion's submarine fleet will increase
and its submarines will carry nu
clear missiles.
"Until general disarmament has
been achieved peace rests on the
maintenance of adequate power
bv the West to discourage aggres
sion by the Soviet bloc or by
China," the white paper added.
Britain plans forces totaling
88,000 for the Royal Navy, 165,000
to 180,000 for the Army and 135,000
for the Royal Air Force.

yards from the falls, and hustled
them off to jail, where they were
booked on a charge of reckless
boating. Bail was set at $250 each,
i The four said that because the
river was swollen by flood waters
they thought they could escape
the rocks in the falls.

thought the young men would ba
thrown to their deaths in the tur
bulence. The young men had notified
some newspapers and radio sta
tions, then tied themselves into
the raft and set off from the
mouth of the Tualatin River. A
number of spectators lined the
river bank.

Nichols and Dencil McNiece, both
21, and Douglas Wayne Kelly and

Care Forgot
The Negro Carnival king Zulu
kicked off the morning festivities
as his parade wound helter-skelter
through the city streets. Instead of
heads, the Zulus tossed coconuts lo
the crowds. Other Negro groups
boycotted the festivities.
But most of the merrymakers
seemed oblivious of rumors of
possible racial unrest stemming
from the pitched legal battle over
the integration of two New Or
leans public schools in mid-November
and the white boycott of the
two schools.
Earlier in the 10-day Carnival
period, hotels and motels had room
aplenty, but by weekend it was
difficult lo find accomodations.
